Hello there good people,
I am recording an album this summer, and have almost all of my material ready, but something I am having trouble with is movie quotes. If you are an avid hip hop listener you may know that it is common place for rap artists to sample movie quotes that pertain to their subject matter. I really like that part of hip hop music, but I'm having trouble doing it myself.

I call upon you to help me find quotes. So if any come to mind pertaining to any of the following subjects, I would appreciate your help. The subjects I am searching for are as follows:

*Unapologetically being yourself and doing what you do
*Noticing only the good in things and having head in the clouds
*General quotes about temptation
*Making someone look like a fool, or them doing it them self
*Appreciation for women but not in a romantic way
*Appreciation for being home
*Relationships falling apart

If you can think of quotes pertaining to any of those subjects it would be awesome. Or even movies you think might have something of interest.

Thanks dudes. :dance:

Some NSFW links up ahead.

Unapologetically being yourself and doing what you doYouTube - Lord Of The Rings: You Bow To Noone
"my friends, you bow to no one". I know it's not a perfect fit but I could see it being used in a cool way in the context you describe. Sucks embedding is disabled but just click the "watch on youtube to see it.

YouTube - Martin Luther King speech
Pretty much any part of the speech would work.:lol:
It could also work for this one-
"Making someone look like a fool, or them doing it them self"



*Making someone look like a fool, or them doing it them self
*Appreciation for women but not in a romantic wayhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fZ25o7iYZ50&playnext_from=TL&videos=eVQ-GsPy9GU

Probably not what you had in mind but it's all I could think of atm. If I think of anything else I'll let you know.

This is really tough, but really interesting. I've been trying to come up with some lines, but it isn't easy. I'm thinking it's easier to think of favorite flicks, pull lines out and see if they fall into any one category.

For instance, from one of my all time favorite movies "Rounders":
Edward Norton: "In the game of life, women are the rake." (I think there is an "f" word in there before rake.)
This could be appropriate in the relationships falling apart category. Or not.

Another favorite movie "Goodfellas":
Joe Pesci: "I settle down with a nice girl every night, then I'm free the next morning."
Appreciation for women. 8)

TMT, can you give us some examples of movie clips that are used in rap songs? I can picture some of the old Wu-Tang music where they cut in B-movie karate flicks, but I can't come up with many more than that.

This WuTang track has a great movie intro: Liquid Swords. I don't listen to much rap anymore, but the song is pretty awesome as well.

Princess Bride
YouTube - The Princess Bride - Hello My Name Is Inigo Montoya

You've got an over developed sense of vengeance. It's going to get you into trouble someday.

Hello. My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die.

Offer me money. Power, too, promise me that. Offer me everything I ask for.

YouTube - An inconceivable Montage
Inconceivable!
You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.


Westley: I told you I would always come for you. Why didn't you wait for me?
Buttercup: Well... you were dead.
Westley: Death cannot stop true love. All it can do is delay it for a while.
Buttercup: I will never doubt again.
Westley: There will never be a need.


Is this a kissing book?

When's it get good?

There's a shortage of perfect breasts in the world.

YouTube - The Princess Bride-Dear God What IS That Thing

I don't think I'm quite familiar with that phrase.

I'll explain and I'll use small words so that you'll be sure to understand, you warthog faced buffoon.

That may be the first time in my life a man has dared insult me.
It won't be the last.

Let me explain. No, there is too much. Let me sum up.

You just wiggled your finger. That's wonderful!

Since the invention of the kiss, there have been five kisses rated the most passionate, the most pure. This one left them all behind. The end.

YouTube - Princess Bride - Battle of Wits
I challenge you to a battle of wits.
Truly you have a dizzying intellect.
Ha ha! You fool! You fell victim to one of the classic blunders!

So you've put some thought into how mysterious you are?

Btw I wasn't poking fun at you btw, I love the Princess Bride. I'm actually surprised I didn't think of it first.
